DK Science of Strength Training
Book SynopsisTrade Review"I highly recommend The Science of Strength Training. It's a comprehensive, actionable, and easy-to-understand handbook for new and experienced weightlifters alike. Worth ten times the price."– Mike Matthews, author of Bigger Leaner Stronger and Thinner Leaner Stronger“I am blown away with the quality of this book! From the photos, diagrams, and text. This is truly the resource for both coaches and those trying to understand the science of lifting more. The perfect resource for learning what exercises target what muscles, how to execute them, and how to train for your goals. Austin's book is an incredible resource for anyone interested in fitness and lifting.”–Alyssa Olenick, Ph.D.(c), CISSN, Researcher & Coach"Austin Current’s Science of Strength Training is a great read for both beginners and advanced trainees alike. Far too often people head into the gym without a clear understanding of the physiology behind the process in which they are engaged. Austin does a great job of breaking down the complex science behind weight training while making it understandable for everyone and ensuring practical applications every step of the way. I can't recommend it enough."–Cliff Wilson, author of Bodybuilding: The Complete Contest Preparation Handbook and 13x World Champion Natural Bodybuilding Coach“Austin has done an incredible job on putting together the Science of Strength Training. He’s found the perfect balance of laying it out in a way that will benefit both the average gym-goer who just loves to train and the more dedicated coach or trainer who has a deeper understanding of the science side of things. I honestly couldn’t recommend this book enough, and I will be using it as a reference for both my online and in-person clients and for the coaches and trainers I help out along the way.”–Danny Kennedy, Personal Trainer & Host of The Fitness & Lifestyle Podcast

New York University Press Is Breast Best
Book SynopsisWhy has breastfeeding re-asserted itself over the last twenty years, and why are the government, the scientific and medical communities, and so many mothers so invested in the idea? In Is Breast Best? Joan B. Wolf challenges the widespread belief that breastfeeding is medically superior to bottle-feeding. Despite the fact that breastfeeding has become the ultimate expression of maternal dedication, Wolf writes, the conviction that breastfeeding provides babies unique health benefits and that formula feeding is a risky substitute is unsubstantiated by the evidence. In accessible prose, Wolf argues that a public obsession with health and what she calls total motherhood has made breastfeeding a cause célèbre, and that public discussions of breastfeeding say more about infatuation with personal responsibility and perfect mothering in America than they do about the concrete benefits of the breast.Parsing the rhetoric of expert advice, including the recent National Breastfeeding AwaTrade ReviewInstead of disputing the science about the chemical makeup of breast milk . . . she (Wolf) posits that the benefits most people associate with breast-feeding studiescannot be separated from the fact that mothers who breast-feed may be more attuned to health and may take more precautions about hygene . . .Wolf rightfully contends that in the government's and acvocate's zeal to increase the numbers of breast-fed babies, they have vastly discounted the harsh realities of breast-feeding in a modern world -- Tara A. Trower * Statesman.com *Wolf confronts the stereotypes of ideal motherhood and explains how public health campaigns and advocacy groups have relied on flawed infant-feeding research to exaggerate any health risks associated with using infant formula. -- Texas A&M University News,tamunews.tamu.eduWolf notes the 'insular and unidimensional zealotry' of breastfeeding campaginers and skillfully uncovers elements of racism and elitism in their behavior toward working women who do not have the luxury to breastfeed. -- A. H. Koblitz * Choice *Wolf offers a powerful and important cultural critique...this is an insightful and eye-opening book that will be of interest to sociologists of gender, medical sociologists, and science studies scholars. -- Abigail C. Saguy * American Journal of Sociology *Beautifully written, powerfully argued. . . . Challenges the science prescription that all infants must be breastfed. -- Linda Blum,author of At the BreastIt is the all-encompassing nature of breast-feeding that is the crux of the most interesting part of Wolf's book. She makes a compelling argument that we are a risk-averse culture that has lost all perspective when it comes to risk assessment and our health, and this tendency is particularly pervasive on the issue of breast-feeding In her book, Wolf rightfully contends that in the government's and advocates' zeal to increase the numbers of breast-fed babies, they have vastly discounted the harsh realities of breast-feeding in a modern world. -- Tara A. Trower * Statesmen.com *Wolf looks at the breast-feeding studies much like ones that ask whether race matters in the way people vote. She scrutinizes the design of the research and how it's been executed and 'then how it's been reported, both to scientists and to the public' * University of Chicago Magazine *Table of ContentsAcknowledgments Preface: Why Breastfeeding? 1 Monitoring Mothers A Recent History of Following the Doctor's Orders 2 The Science Does Breastfeeding Make Smarter, Happier, and Healthier Babies? 3 Minding Your Own (Risky) Business Health and Personal Responsibility 4 From the Womb to the Breast Total Motherhood and Risk-Free Children 5 Scaring Mothers The Government Campaign for Breastfeeding 6 Conclusion Whither Breastfeeding?Notes Bibliography IndexAbout the Author

In looking at causation, prevention, and therapy, they offer contributions addressing these questions: What similarities and differences exist between normal aging and disease-related neurodegeneration in terms of susceptibility to and effects of oxidative stress?

I know Phil has put a ton of work into this, so I'm certain it's going to be really useful guide to diabetics out there. Recommended! -Sigma Nutrition (World's Biggest Sports Nutrition Podcast); Phil's book is going to be a great success! There is very little credible information out there on how to build a better looking and stronger body with diabetes. Most of the information is written by people without diabetes who can't relate, or its simply too complicated! This book is definitely needed in the world of bodybuilding! - IFBB PRO Bodybuilder ANTH BAILESTable of ContentsChapter 1 gives a general overview of what this book is and what it is not. Chapter 2 tells you my story on how I transformed myself from a fat, depressed, unhealthy type 1 diabetic into a significantly healthier, stronger and leaner version of myself. At the same time I outline how my obsession for learning about diabetes, the human body, nutrition and exercise led to the rise of my career as a leading personal trainer and fitness educator. Chapter 3 covers all things diabetes. This includes everything from understanding underlying physiology (what's actually wrong with me) right through to the detrimental health consequences that can result if you don't respect/look after your condition. Chapter 4 focuses on getting your mind (set). I cover many of the depressing, annoying and emotional issues diabetics face. I outline the coping strategies I've used to successfully change my perception and overcome the fear and self-doubt associated with diabetes. Chapter 5 takes a closer look at Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes medications. I discuss the most recent innovations in diabetic health care. Chapter 6 focuses on nutrition and how to develop a smart sustainable diet that fuels maximum muscle gain and shreds fat. I'll also discuss the role of supplements, and how they can be used tactfully in your quest to build a better you. Chapter 7 teaches you everything you need to know about building an effective training program. I cover a tone of principles, which are often overlooked, but make for long-term success in the weight room. You'll never enter the gym without a clear plan of action again. Chapter 8 is a step-by-step guide on how to evaluate and adjust your program for daily and long-term success. There is zero room for guesswork. Chapter 9 focuses on lifestyle management and highlights everything you can do, outside of the gym to promote mind and body development. Chapter 10 gives you an overview and some closing thoughts, including a list of 50 Tips I wish I knew when I was first diagnosed. I also talk about my exclusive Diabetic Muscle and Fitness online community and how I plan to be at the forefront of the diabetic strength and fitness scene.
